Summary

"'From the dust' contains the poignant stories of many destitute children-- stories of how they came to live on the streets and of how their lives were changed. Here are stories of a people ravaged by a demonic dictator, a people who had lost all sense of humanity and were struggling under emotional, physical, and spiritual poverty. 'From the dust' tells how one man's efforts made a difference to so many who were groping in a dark world of sin and hopelessness" -- p. [4] of cover.
